Only downside is that it shuts down your instance after a few
minutes of inactivity. The first access after that needs to start
up the instance again and this can be slow. So it might not
be the best choice if access to your app is infrequent.
Of course, you can pay $0.30/day to have an 'always-on'
instance and then it's quite snappy.

Another thing to consider is that the datastore can be quite
slow, so if your app is data intensive, you might need to look into
memcache to optimize things a bit.
